Solid Phase Solutions
TRUST GILSONDecades of experience in engineering, optimizing and supporting automation and custom solutions for countless laboratories around the world have made Gilson the gold standard for reliability, fast installation, straight-forward operation, and high lifetime value. Built to be modular and versatile, Gilson systems will adapt to your changing needs for years to come and help lower operating costs while improving results, morale and productivity.
ASPEC® SPE PRE-CAPPED CARTRIDGES - CONSISTENT FLOW RATES AND YIELDASPEC™, pre-capped solid phase extraction cartridges are available in 1, 3, and 6 mL volumes. These high quality silica and polymer products come in a variety of phases including Silica, C18, SCX, WCX, HLB (Polymeric) and many more. With reproducible separation, high loading capacity and accurate elution properties, each of the phases allows low solvent consumption and reliable analysis.
More consistent flow rates and analyte recoveries
Reduced variation
Minimal carryover from sample to sample
REPRODUCIBLE RESULTS INCREASE YOUR PRODUCTIVITYAutomating SPE improves reproducibility, reduces the costs and delays associated with re-runs and increases overall throughput by running samples 24/7 without overtime or coffee breaks. Imagine starting your day with samples ready for analysis! Equally important, process automation limits the long-term exposure of personnel to repetitive, often demoralizing tasks or harmful chemicals and frees up people to focus on mission-critical efforts that require human touch.
Solid phase extraction consists of multiple steps that require precise volumes, pressure, timing and more. Automation delivers the accuracy, reproducibility, high recoveries and yields required by researchers in environmental, clinical, pharmaceutical, forensic and agricultural labs. Versatile applications that improve performance are at your fingertips with our trusted ASPEC™ solutions.
Application of positive pressure to individual cartridges using Gilson’s unique sealing cap technology ensures more consistent flow rates and analyte recoveries, reduced variation, and minimal carryover from sample to sample.
Enhanced SPE sample processing and applications offer increased versatility for today’s busy laboratories. Gilson SPE systems feature cutting-edge technology in a space-saving, modular design that can be customized to meet your exact specifications.

Seamless SPE with the GX-Series ASPEC™ Systems
Concentrate with Large-Volume Water SPE
Single and dual syringe pumps deliver volumes from 10 µL to 25 mL with high accuracy and precision
Positive pressure elution with syringe push or external gas
Standard racks accommodate 1, 3 and 6 mL SPE pre-capped cartridges
Racks accommodate a wide variety of test tubes and vials. GIlson provides customized rack solutions for specialized vessels, allowing the instrument to conform to your application.
Post purification processing?With the mobile rack technology from Gilson, you have access to purified samples for any subsequent steps, including pH adjustment, solvent evaporation or automatic injection.
Analyze the sample automatically?The GX Direct Injection Module supports on-line injections onto HPLC or LC/MS systems. Transfer ports are also available to deliver samples to off-bed detection sources such as spectrophotometers for flow injection analysis.
Prepare more samples faster?Process up to four samples simultaneously with the GX-274 ASPEC™. Four probes run in parallel and deliver higher total throughput and faster turn-around during hectic periods.
Laboratories are under pressure to process more samples than ever in a limited laboratory space. Integrating SPE with all the capabilities of an automated liquid handler, the GX-Series ASPEC™ is Gilson’s solution to the requirements for smaller, flexible, highly capable instruments that are cost-effective and simple to operate.
Built upon the robustness of the Gilson GX-Series ASPEC™ systems, the Large-Volume (LV) Water SPE system configurations provide rugged and reliable automation of small to large volume SPE applications for labs conducting research and routine testing on drinking water, rain water, ground water and surface water. Concentration extends the range of analytical equipment and makes the difference between the right result – and no result at all.
Concentration works best with larger volumes, so it is a natural fit for samples that never run out, such as water.
But how do I push a liter of water through standard SPE cartridges?
Large-Volume Water SPE solution from Gilson combines all of the features of the GX-271/GX-274 ASPEC™ with special hardware that makes large-volume SPE practical and cost-effective.
REMOVE BOTTLENECKS WITH INTEGRATED DRY-DOWNAfter SPE, samples often need to be dried down to facilitate the next step of the analysis. Taking up only one rack position, the GX Solvent Evaporation Station automates this time-consuming step and removes a common bottleneck in laboratories.
Dries down 40 samples simultaneously
Unattended and fully automated
Moisture and maintenance free, low temperature dry down
Programmable or keypad controlled

Limited Lab Space? GX-241 ASPEC™ System
Which Gilson SPE system is right for you?
Occupying less than 40 cm of linear bench space, Gilson’s smallest automated SPE and liquid handling system is ideally suited for facilities where bench space or budget is limited. The GX-241 ASPEC™ System offers all standard features of the larger ASPEC systems in a single-probe, compact configuration designed for lower-throughput applications.
Whether your priority is flexibility, throughput or footprint, there is a Gilson system that offers the right features for your application. Regardless of which configuration best meets your needs, you can be confident that any Gilson SPE solution will perform to the highest industry standards.
Distinct modules simplify building methods and application
Easily build new tasks or expressions with commands and operators
Create methods quickly with drag-and-drop, “ready-to-use” tasks
Run more efficiently with choice of modes
